“One thing that Emma got to have that I didn’t, that I really was jealous of, is that I wanted to be the inventor too!” O’Hara told Yahoo Movies. “I loved that Belle was the inventor.”

O’Hara added that she was thrilled with the casting of Watson in the role that she created. “I loved her interpretation,” the voice actress said. “She’s just such an intelligent, sweet actress, and I just thought she was wonderful.”

She also revealed that her friend Robby Benson, the voice of animated Beast, “loved what Dan Stevens did with the Beast.”
